When a man comes into the office
and planks down the cash andsays s'send
me your paper for one year." that
means business. When one says II
want your paper but haven't got the
money now" that's all right. When
he takes it out of the post office
for several months and sends it back
refused" that's meanness. When 8
man spends from ten cents to a dollar
for cigars or beer a week and says he
cant afford to take and pay for his home
paper, that's no such thing. When g
man borrows his neighbors paper to
read every week, that's cheek.-Ex.

DEATH OF MR.. III. LEFEBVRE.

Mr.. Fl. Lefebvre died at his re-
sidence in this city, on Wednesday
evening; the 9TH, inst, after a long
and cruel illness, in the 57th year
of his age. He was native of
Metz, in Alsace, at that time a part
of France, but now province of
the German Empire.
Married quite young, Mr.. Lee
febvre came to America in 1858,
first settling on a farm at Bellevue,
Iowa. In the year 1855, he came
to Wisconsin and adopted this
place as his future home, where
he lived continuously to the time
Of his death. In those early days,
Grand Rapids was already a lum-
bering village of some Importance,
but Centralia consisted only of a
number Of single shanties on the
bank Of the Wisconsin river, and
a few primitive pine slab dwellings,
where modern comfort was I'M
known.
A few days after his arrival
here with his wife and infant
daughter, Mr.. Lefebvre went in
business, but his health never was
as good from that time as when he
led a more active life He leaves
behind wife and three children,
Mrs. Voyer Of Junction City, Mrs,
L. M. Nash and Mr.. Emile Le-
febvre, of Centralia.
He had been for many years an
almost constant sufferer with in
fammatory rheumatism, until the
strong remedies and the intense
and continuous pain undermined
his naturally strong constitution.
His trouble soon eliminated into
dropsy and a weakened condition
of all the vital organs. His friends
could notice that, for the year last
past, he was failing day by day.
He sought relief in Milwaukee,
a few weeks ago, by trying some
medicated baths, but after an alb
sence of week there and in Chi
cago, he returned home in a worse
condition than before, Since that
time, his life has been but a slow
agony, until he passed away, re
tanning the full use Of his mental
faculties to the last moment.
Mr.. Lefebvre owned a fine resi-
dence and business building in
Centralia, besides several tenement
houses and valuable tract of
cranberry and other marsh lands
in close proximity to the city. He
leaves his family in very favorable
financial circumstances.
The funeral services took place
from the Roman Catholic Church,
of this city Saturday at 10 o'clock
a. m.
To the bereaved family of the
deceased, and to his faithful wife,
who stood SO heroically by his bed
side, ministering to his wants, dur
ing the long days and sleepless
nights of illness, we tender the
expression of our heartfelt sympa-
thy Enterprise.
